Although the entire patent system has a profound effect on the decision of firms of whether to conduct research and at which volume, patent law is the heart of the entire patent system. Therefore, this book focuses on the economic effects of certain provisions in patent law by using economic models dedicated to patent policy. The first part of the book presents a brief overview over the history of patent systems and introduces the main components of modern patent systems. A short introduction of the principal provisions of US patent law constitutes the centre of the subsequent analysis as it serves as a link between law and economics. The second part presents core economic models for central provisions, collecting the most fundamental results in a national framework in the field of literature. Part three is concerned with selected provisions of patent law in an international framework. It provides valuable insights into the situation of developing countries which are the chief recipients of technology transfers. Patent Policy will be of interest to researchers interested in the field of modelling patent policy. It can be also used as supplementary text in courses in Industrial Organization, Innovation Economics and Law and Economics. 000027804 650_0 $$aTechnology transfer$$zDeveloping countries. 000027804 650_0 $$aTechnological innovations$$zDeveloping countries. 000027804 650_0 $$aCopyright. 000027804 650_0 $$aCopyright$$zDeveloping countries. 000027804 650_0 $$aPatents$$zDeveloping countries. 000027804 650_0 $$aIntellectual property$$zDeveloping countries. 000027804 650_4 $$aTechnology transfer 000027804 650_4 $$aTechnological innovations 000027804 650_4 $$aPatent laws and legislation -- Economic aspects 000027804 650_4 $$aElectronic books. -- local 000027804 651_0 $$aDeveloping countries$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000027804 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000027804 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aWeiss, Pia$$tPatent Policy : Legal-Economic Effects in a National and International Framework$$dLondon : Taylor and Francis,c2010$$z9780415481052 000027804 830_0 $$aEconomics of Legal Relationships. 000027804 85640 $$uhttp://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/wipo/detail.action?docID=496396$$yView Ebook 000027804 904__ $$aBook 000027804 942__ $$cEBOOK 000027804 980__ $$aBIB 000027804 980__ $$aEBL_old 000027804 980__ $$aOS 000027804 999__ $$c30319$$d30319
